I'm here in the CERN video editing room, updating the blog. We've been taking tons of video footage for the visual team back at Lincoln to manipulate and mold into a final, finished, and polished project. Additionally, we'll be using voice-overs for some of the videos, since we managed to get zilch audio the first day of the interviews. (Very depressing, especially since the physicists' comments on the food in the cafeteria were lost.) We've been to ATLAS, CMS, and the LHC tunnel, and learned plenty of information to use in future articles and for videos.
ALSO:
WE FOUND THE HIGGS.
Actually, Peter Higgs. I even shook his hand, haven't washed it yet. (Just kidding, Mom)
Although finding the particle would have been fantastic, this is trés exciting, as they might say here in Switzerland.
So long for now, I'm off to do some work, and then at 4:30 PM (16:30) I have an interview with a physicist who, get this, won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2003!!! What an exciting weekend, Higgs yesterday, Sir Anthony James Leggett today. There's no place like CERN, end of story.
Good bye!
